Fortnite Winterfest 2023 Release Date
Epic games have not yet confirmed the actual release date for the 2023 Winterfest event, but we can make an educated guess based on the past few years. Here are the release dates of the previous iterations of this event:
- Winterfest 2022 - December 13th
- Winterfest 2021 - December 16th
- Winterfest 2019 - December 17th
All of these events were also released after the usual maintenance on Tuesday. From all of this information we can make an educated guess that Winterfest 2023 is going to come out on either December 12th or December 19th after maintenance. Hopefully Epic Games releases it earlier so they can continue the streak of new content in the game.
